It 'was a chance that vigilantes were on board the vessel Nordan, but above all it was a lucky coincidence.

The decision was taken on the eve of the trip because the ship was considered easy prey for its low-speed navigation feature is its very low board. The fact that the ship was registered in Singapore was not necessary to ask permission to the Danish Ministry of Justice. Somali pirates have followed the usual script, believing they have to do with an easy prey. They have two small boats attacked with speed, coming from the stern of the ship and began to fire at the Danish cargo for the purpose of intimidating them and forcing the commander to stop the machines.

I loro familiari hanno avuto contatti sia con gli ostaggi sia con i pirati. A rivelarlo con un comunicato il ministro degli affari esteri danese. Una buona notizia che ha rincuorato molti, ma al tempo stesso ha portato a capire che ora inizia la fase più difficile del sequestro ossia quella della war of nerves between the kidnappers and negotiators.
